If you look at the tach you can tell that 'photographic proof' isn't that reliable.


I was actually doing 75... the stepper motor for the speedo is starting to go out.
I'll be ordering a replacement or two from ebay, unless I can find a damaged 2500 hd cluster locally to cannibalize the oil temp gauge overlay, needle, backlighting, and a couple of steppers from.

Looked like 130 or so truck was solid as a rock and had more to go, think it could tip 150 I know it has the gear for it and was still pulling. Damn trip meter doesn't read over the speedo's maximum value.

my limiter was removed when i got a tune but i still havent broken 100...i do feel more comfortableat high speeds since getting my low pro and the drop.

fastest ive ever been in a car was my buddies 300ZX TT. we hit 165 on i-285 and it was still pulling. hes dropped over 30 grand into the car. close to 6K in brakes/suspension alone.

I've done 125 on a certified speedo (my speedo goes to 140) in my police package 05 Tahoe with just an intake . It was pretty stable too but didn't have much room left. I imagine the people going 60 at 5am in the morning were a little surprised to see me passing at that speed.

(Sure the $40,000.00 Red Ducati is nice.... But I have more fun!!!)



I think top speed is not relevant because you can pretty much only go straight at top speed...

I be more impressed seeing a big SUV with decent handling taking some corners at speed sliding the rear end a little bit... :D Luis
